Tom Hanks, Smokey Bear at governor's mansion

Two-time Oscar winner Tom Hanks was at the governor's mansion Monday evening, popping in either after or during an event for the state's Department of Forestry.

That's Secretary of Agriculture and Forestry Todd Haymore on the far right there, along with Hanks, Smokey Bear, Gov. Terry McAuliffe and his wife, Dorothy. Hanks was in town working on "Ithaca," a Meg Ryan-directed movie filming in the area.

Getting film crews here is a priority for the governor, and the state has some dedicated grants and tax credit incentives for the industry.

"When viewers see Virginia's rich history and local landscapes on the big screen, it can encourage more people to visit the Commonwealth, which is why the governor and the Virginia film office have made bringing these types of projects to Virginia a priority," McAuliffe spokeswoman Rachel Thomas said in an email.

Please note - PLEASE note, the book in Hanks' left hand. That is "What a Party!," McAuliffe's autobiography.
